Assembling the classic line-up – Gillan, Blackmore, Lord, Paice, Glover – for the first time, Deep Purple created In Rock, a raging aural assault whose unbridled power is matched only by its technical execution. The same sessions also produced “Black Night”, one of the all-time great heavy rock singles. In a year of several massive British heavy rock milestones, In Rock stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the very best.
